Yes. You can use the Add Printer wizard to set up more than one icon for any printer, and then go to the printer’s properties to specify the page size or other options you want. Be sure to give each icon a descriptive name; for example, Laser- American Letter or Laser-Oversize. Then, when you’re ready to print a document, send it to the appropriate printer name.
